Alex Eydt

Alex Eydt, is one putting himself out there as one of the most interesting individuals to come out of Ireland in recent years. The 24-year old has a vision of redefining what an "artist" is.

Unlike most musical artists, Alex was late to the party, having only discovered music during COVID, where he locked himself away and immersed himself in a grueling study of musical history and theory. His lack of formal education has made his output formless - meandering in and out of different genres like it’s nothing.

His second ever release earlier this year, ‘Face Her’, landed on the much coveted and increasingly selective ‘New Music Friday UK’ playlist earlier this month, an incredible feat for a new independent artist and testament to his artistic potential.

Guardians’, is a mesh of conflicting personalities. This new form of thinking where creativity is not confined to one perspective, and from this birthed an avant-garde pop record that defies easy categorization, making Alex a true chameleon. The album ‘Guardians’ is a conceptual journey, a musical ceremony that delves into the profound themes of religion, spirituality, and the struggle to maintain sound mental health and doctrine in the modern era.

From the likes of ‘DeMar -::’ a transient adventure using old sampling techniques, to ‘Take Someone’, an old Spaghetti Western soundtrack, to ‘Vision :: Voice’, a Elvish chorus, one really does not know what Alex Eydt will do next and the mythical story surrounding him is growing.

In a music industry where formulaic compositions often prevail, Alex's ‘Guardians’ offers a breath of fresh air. It is a kaleidoscope of musical experiences. And with a commitment that promises to redefine the music industry, Alex Eydt has his sights firmly set on leaving an indelible mark on Irish music.
